A turnover experiment was performed with yeast cells uniformly labeled with both 32 P and [2-3 H] inositol showing that the major inositol-containing compound phosphatidylinositol lost both labels at the same rate with a half life of about two generations. In contrast, 32 P accumulated in phosphatidylcholine, presumably derived from lipid and nonlipid precursors. The major yeast phosphosphingolipid, ceramide (inositol) 2 (phosphate) 2 mannose accumulated both 3 H and 32 P at a rate suggesting that phosphatidylinositol served as the phosphoinositol precursor and that the bond between phosphorus and inositol is not broken during this conversion. During logarithmic growth, on complex or defined media, yeast release an inositol-containing compound, which we identified as glycerophosphorylinositol (GPI). The amount released was proportional to cell density and equivalent to 1 4 the cellular phosphatidylinositol. Compared to GPI, much smaller amounts of glycerophosphorylcholine (GPC) and glycerophosphorylethanolamine (GPE) accumulated in the medium. GPI, GPE and GPC were not reutilized by the cells. Extracellular GPI acquired both 3 H and 32 P labels at the same rate during the turnover experiment, indicating that it too is a product of phosphatidylinositol turnover, presumably via direct deacylation. With yeast grown in the presence of [2-3 H] inositol, 88% of the 3 H was acid insoluble and could be recovered as lipid; 99% of the lipid-extractable 3 H was still in inositol. The total 3 H found in the compounds analyzed was constant during the turnover suggesting that all quantitatively important pools of inositol were measured.
